On February 10, 2010, Teachers Rock featured Dr. Joke Bradt, a Board-certified music therapist and Assistant Director of The Arts and Quality of Life Research Center at Temple University. Dr. Bradt shared her experiences working with at-risk youth in inner-city Philadelphia through the “Hear Our Voices” songwriting program. Participants learned how songwriting can help struggling students work through difficult situations while building basic and creative writing skills.
